Sweet As Pie Cupcakes

So we've been going with a kind of fallish theme and so today here are some adorable cupcakes disguised as pies! 

*Thanks to http://familyfun.go.com/ for the recipe!

Ingredients

• 1 dozen of your favorite cupcakes
• 16-ounce can of white frosting
• 3 drops yellow food coloring

• 1 teaspoon cocoa powder OR 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup
• red chocolate candies, such as M&M's

Instructions

1. Bake a dozen of your favorite cupcakes. Tint a 16-ounce can of white frosting with 3 drops yellow food coloring and either 1 teaspoon cocoa powder or 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup, then frost the cupcakes.
2. Transfer the remaining frosting to a ziplock bag, snip off a corner, and set the bag aside. Press red chocolate candies (such as M&M's) onto the top of each cupcake as shown, then use the bagged frosting to pipe a lattice pattern over them and a zigzag crust around the edge. Makes 12 cupcakes.
